Methodology for SNL Nuclear Facility Categorization

Bange, Marilyn S.

This administrative operating procedure (AOP) provides the process for performing the initial and final hazard categorization for a nuclear facility or activity to ensure compliance with 10 CFR 830.202. This AOP provides guidance on the application of the PHS process (refer to MN471017, Safety Basis Manual, Appendix NF-01,"Nuclear Facility Hazard Categorization") and describes the analyses that might be required to finalize a facility's hazard categorization.
